Therapy?

Oran Mor, Glasgow

23rd April 2015

Review and photography by Ritchie Birnie

I am standing outside the stunning venue that is Oran Mor, a renovated church in the West end of Glasgow. A great little venue with brilliant acoustics, bars and views. As I take in the architecture I look at the gathered rabble outside in the sunshine and see what an eclectic bunch we have, Rockers, punks, indies and some better dressed people who must be hanging onto the past, scared to let that little slice of anarchy go just yet.

Therapy? Definitely cross genres and appeal to a lot of people as they have travelled along their long, illustrious career but how did they do tonight?

Upstairs at The Garage, London

30th November 2013

Review by Kirsty Birkett-Stubbs

There’s a long queue out the front of the Garage tonight. It looks to be a good one. Then you clock the line is for Girlschool, installed in the main venue, whilst at the door for Sister, upstairs, feet are a bit more thin on the ground. Sadly missing as well is our photographer, who taken severely ill can’t be in attendance. Shall we just go home now – not likely. For one, despite the faux-female name and the make-up, Sister are four dudes from Sweden, and are as cool as cucumbers in their home climate. For another, they’re finishing a mammoth year of touring and one quiet door won’t do much to dent that.

But most of all, Sister just don’t give a fuck about such things. That’s not the Sister way.
